Today the Ministry of Food introduced rationing and everyone over eleven had to apply for a card. So, I had to stand in the shivering cold outside the Post Office, to apply. There were at least one hundred people in front of me.
At last I handed in my application and got a scruffy piece of paper back with 62 clothing tokens, 4 sweet tokens and 50 food tokens. The lady at my local shop is blind so me and my friends decided to see if she would accept blotting paper tokens. We made them at school the day before and I tried to get a bag of bulls eyes from the shop keeper. She took them!!
Then wewent to our fort and to eat our sweets there. The lady will get suspicious if we do this everyday though, so we decided that we should only do it once a week.
